That poor snowflake. I get Harris, Trump, and every single damn person that's running for office in my mail. Except for some reason I get duplicates of the Trump ones.

The thing is, it's worked. Simply by doubling up the lies changed my mind. If they are that so sure about the things they say and say it with conviction without nary a difference it must be true.

Nah, just more recycling.

Wow what a big man. He sure showed Harris what for.

I can't tell you how many times I've been to the airport waiting for the naked scanner and been part of a group tahen thru the metal detector instead and let thru. I don't even have to opt out of the scanner for the pat down.

Two things:

1. That guy looks like he's intimately familiar with video cameras and 1-way mirrors
2. I wonder if that one southern Senator fond of underage girls has already volunteered to lead the program?

Whoo boy, someone hand the Justice Dept a book about how policing came to be.

Spoiler: it involved finding runaway slaves siccing bloodhounds on them and brutally beating them somewhere in the range of half to fully dead.

When U.S. police departments didn't evolve out of slave patrols, they tended to form out of a desire to protect the property of the wealthy. In practice, this meant beating, murdering and arresting people who didn't want to work 12 hour days until they died.

Here's a link to a fantastic Behind the Bastards episode about how the police came to be.

Why? You get more accurate results if you hang a map on the wall, cover your eyes, and throw darts at the map.

"It has been determined that Google has illegally used a system of only revealing and displaying bad stories about Donald J. Trump, some made up for this purpose while, at the same time, only revealing good stories about" Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris, Trump said.

Don't worry, I speak Trump.

Translation: Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I don't wike what thewer saying about meeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!! I want Google FIRED nnnnnooooooooowwwwwwww!

“I’m actually really excited about how nerdy we got on the security architecture,” says David Weston, vice president of enterprise and OS security at Microsoft

Please do. Stream it too so we all can enjoy.

I'm getting this wrong probably: A-people hire other A-people, B-people hire A-people, C-people hire D-people, and D-people hire Trump.

I'd always leave my computer on but turn off the monitor. Usually it would go to sleep or hibernate, but certain programs would keep it awake. Keep in mind this was during the Win 7 era so it wasn't foolproof and it would just stay on.

That's sweet that you think there will be an election if Trump wins in 2024.

Was he ever?

I've been denied a refund for a game I played for 2 minutes and realized was trash. When I quit it went back to a popped-under splash screen instead of quitting to desktop. I turned off the monitor for the night and the next day when I requested the refund, Steam said I played it for too long and denied my refund.

It was a game under $10 so I didn't lose much but it was still bullshit.

Oh fuck off, Graham.

Hang 'em both.

Fuck RFK Jr.

Well lookie here. It's Big-Government DeSantis creating the Junior Anti-Sex League.

The Junior Anti-Sex League represents the Party's efforts to control the most intimate aspects of individuals' lives in "1984".

Unlike Winston, [Julia] had grasped the inner meaning of the Party’s sexual puritanism. It was not merely that the sex instinct created a world of its own which was outside the Party’s control and which therefore had to be destroyed if possible. What was more important was that sexual privation induced hysteria, which was desirable because it could be transformed into war-fever and leader-worship.

Ya'll are missing the point. He doesn't see it because he doesn't see any more elections in the future. He isn't talking about being successful at winning the 2024 election, he's talking about successfully executing a coup.

I totally agree with you there, and I'm so sorry that you had to flee your home.
